Hill Whose genial friendship is an inspiration. Sincerely Simon Wolf Washington D.C. Sept. 2/19". A spokesman for the Jewish Community Simon Wolf had the ears of several presidents beginning with Abraham Lincoln and continuing through Woodrow Wilson. A lawyer and member of the Washington Hebrew Congregation and B'nai B'rith Wolf pleaded a Jewish soldier's case directly to President Lincoln. The Civil War soldier who was meant to be executed the following morning for having deserted his unit to travel to his mother's deathbed was pardoned by Lincoln following Wolf's impassioned plea: ". would you have been a deserter to her who gave you birth rather than deserter in law but not in fact to the flag to which you had sworn allegiance" Serving as attorney for Southern Jews charged with espionage not to mention his membership in B'nai B'rith led to his arrest as a traitor by Colonel Lafayette Baker of the War Department. When he learned of it Secretary of War Edwin Stanton called the action an outrage and had Wolf immediately released. His book "The American Jew as Patriot Soldier and Citizen" was his response to charges that Jews had evaded military service. Debunking the charges Wolf listed more than 8000 Jewish soldiers who served in the Civil War. President Grant appointed him Recorder of Deeds and and he served as Consul General to Egypt under President Garfield. He served as chairman of the Board of Delegates of Civil and Religious Rights and as President of the International Order of B'nai B'rith. "In 1869 he appealed to President Grant urging the United States to protest the expulsion of thousands of Russian Jews from their homes. In 1903 he helped organize a national petition protesting the Russian government's actions in the Kishinev massacre". -- Paraphrased with a quote from the Jewish Historical Society of Greater Washington's essay "Men with the President's Ear".
